Stuffed Bell Peppers

by Pam on March 11, 2008

This is a childhood favorite – my Mom made the best stuffed peppers. I decided to make these using ingredients that I had on hand and needed to use up. They were simple to make and tasted amazing. Not only did my husband love these but my two children did too.

In a large glass baking dish, add 1 1/2 cups of water. Scoop meat mixture into peppers until it’s heaping full and place into baking dish. Add marinara sauce to each pepper then top with sprinkled Parmesan cheese. Bake covered in tin foil for 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake additional 5 minutes. I serve with a tossed salad. Enjoy.

Most children & husbands don’t like these. Change the name to “unstuffed peppers ” & try this –saute large diced pepper with meat. Then just continue cooking in the skillet. Same taste, easier to eat & no oven.

I was happy to find this blog, since I haven’t seen very many which promote healthy recipes. I like to cook healthy meals for my family, and I wouldn’t change a thing in this recipe….except to perhaps use 1/2 lean ground beef and 1/2 ground turkey. How can I sign-up for e-mails?
